Den - Thanks for the info. I'd never heard of JExcelAPI but I've used Jasper on some previous Java-based contracts and, yes, it's great.
Problem is that this client is on shared hosting (CrystalTech) so my ability to install 3rd-party libraries is essentially zero. Unless someone knows of a pure CF way to manipulate Excel files. :-) With the PDF idea already working, what I'd really prefer at this point is a better way to control the contents of those. The only way to do so on a stock CF9 install is through HTML wrapped in <cfdocument> (please anyone correct me if wrong) and that means using CSS which isn't well covered in the bundled HTML-to-PDF libraries. :-( Cheers, db ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344128 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
